Admiralty and Maritime Law

If it floats (or used to), leaks oil, is listed as seafood at your favorite restaurant, or just smells a little salty, the admiralty and maritime law of the United States probably has something to do with it, and this is a practice area we know quite a bit about.

Commercial Litigation

Even the most sophisticated, well-run business has disputes that cannot be resolved with amicable negotiations.  When you have no other option (or someone is coming after your company), seasoned and experienced trial lawyers who understand how to run a business are essential to a successful outcome.

Employment Law

In a world where the government regulates every facet of life, relationships between business owners, managers, and employees have become increasingly complex. Employment contracts, non-compete agreements, and discrimination complaints should only be considered with the advice of an experienced attorney.

Insurance Coverage

Think you owe coverage?  Believe you’re entitled to coverage? Maybe, maybe not.  Insurance coverage questions can be simple and straightforward, but no one needs a lawyer for simple questions.  When the waters are murky and a lot is on the line, a good coverage lawyer can make the difference in determining how the insurance money flows.

Intellectual Property

Protecting your ideas, business identity, and trade secrets can mean the difference between success and failure.  Trademarks and copyrights can be a crucial part of this process (we aren’t patent lawyers, but we do know some good ones).

Business and Corporate Law

We recognize that as a profession, lawyers kill as many deals as they make.  When you want the deal to go through (or to be salvaged), the advice of lawyers with a background in trial work (see Commercial Litigation, above) can be invaluable in getting the deal done.
